Hot looking. Couldn't help myself.

 

a matter of time….

Yikes

 

Is anybody here able to identify the make/model of the wheels here?

 

Not sure about those specific wheels, but HRE just introduced their new flow form wheel that is very similar.

HRE FlowForm - FF15 | HRE Performance Wheels

 

Check with Wheel Dynamics?

 

Two coats of opti coat applied while waiting for the rubber. I hope it happens soon, because it's already cold and slippery.

 

Good things take time!

 

Bolts came in today.

 

Can't wait to see these on your car!

 

^^That.
This is taking long....do you need help

 

tomorrow I can mount them on the Macan. Too tall for the Audi.

 

^ you are killing us with one step approach at a time.

- showing us the wheel, then the tikore lug bolts, now tires on rims ....

 

The spec here is et4 rear, et23 fronts (20x9.5 et29 all 4, 25mm spacer rear, 6mm spacer front)
275x45-20 tire x four.

I had to put an unplanned 6mm spacer in the front, since the wheel was touching the caliper. I needed about 3mm to clear, but had some spacers left over from my S4 that fit. This made my front bolts to short though, so I used some longer cone seat bolts i had laying around.

Now I need to order 10 more bolts that are 6mm longer than the Tikore rears.

The tire reduced the gap some as well. Its 10mm taller than the stock ones.

Ill clean the car up soon, and take some final pictures. These are off a phone, and the car is dirty. Was a long day sorting this out though.

 

Great wheels!

LOU: Do you think whether 20x10 et25 wheel with 275 tires will work in the front? I am thinking to go 20x10 et25 all around for summer (with 15mm spacer in the rear).

Thanks!

Finally.... and ****, very nice with painted calipers. I like the offset.

 

Yes, as long as the front calipers clear the spokes.

 

Thanks, LOU!

 

Has anyone considered the Flowform wheels from HRE. They look great and the price seems to be quite reasonable. Two models.

HRE FlowForm - FF01 | HRE Performance Wheels

HRE FlowForm - FF15 | HRE Performance Wheels

 

They are good choices. OZ makes flow forming wheels too. Check out tirerack.com.

I have the OZ wheels on my BMW. They are light and strong. Paint and finish are nice.

 

Hopefully someone does HRE P101.

 

^ For almost $10K just on wheels alone, you gotta be obsessive and in love with your Macan to do this !

just saying.

 

I know people that have paid more for a quality custom rim. If your paying that much for a ride why cheap out on the wheel/tires??

 

I just order my summer wheel set-up. Niche misano t 61 monotec forged in gloss black

 

So < $10K is cheap out?

 

At 10k each, are they more round?

 

10k each, no 10k for the set rims and rubber. I am talking a set of rims made to your exact specs. Not a set you can go to a shop and pick off the wall. And no I am not saying that 10 k is cheaping out. All I am saying is why buy a rim that is cheap and weights 35 pounds each to put on a porsche. To each his own.

 

Well, because it's for winter and the Porsche in question is an SUV?

If performance was the primary or only goal we would all be on 18" wheels, wouldn't we.

 

These 18" BBS SRs weren't expensive, the quality is great

For comparison to 21" Turbo 911:

 

These 18" BBS SRs weren't expensive, the quality is great

Those BBS wheels look fantastic!
